The first thing that came to mind was the Koiga who'd kidnapped her in Vesuvia. Her grogginess wore off rapidly, and the headache was mild at best. She sat up on the hard floor. In front of her was a large opening to a balcony that gave a fantastic nighttime view of two moons and an enormous, beautiful planet with blue oceans and vast continents. The roof had a few openings, but there were spots where black drapes hung halfway down to the floor. The walls appeared to be made of a combination of metals, and along them were numerous statues of creatures Sara had never seen before. Looking back, Sara found Nibiru in his chair, watching her. She scrambled to her feet and grabbed her equinox. “Who are you?” “My name is Nibiru,” he answered, making an effort to at least look friendly. “I tried to decorate a little bit, but I'm not too familiar with human taste.” If Nibiru’s pale skin and glowing red eyes didn’t give it away, the view to the outside told Sara where she was. “This is the Shadow Realm, isn't it?”
